Nell the little miracle recent visit 🐾

Nell came into our practice in mild shock, with a small hole in the front of her head. Our Gorebridge team triaged and stabilised Nell, and arranged an emergency transfer to the Dick Vet Hospital for Small Animals.
After a CT scan, and intensive hospital monitoring in their ICU, nell was discharged after only 2 days. Less than 1 week later her wounds are healing well and she’s back to chasing her tail!❤🐾
